August 2, 2025 -

watched shetland, by far my favorite of those i have watched.

unforgotten, was another great one.

line of duty, watched ages ago and have been trying to get back into it.

annika, was good for a bit, but just felt it was getting a little silly, and all the geographical looseness that happens quite a lot was annoying me quite a bit, didn't finish it.

in plain sight was another great little watch.

So yea just if anyone can reccomend anything like the above would be great, just to save myself from watching a few episodes and not really getting into it.

September 6, 2025 -

I’ve recently been on a crime drama binge and I’m looking for more recommendations.

I just watched Dept Q and Fool Me Once and really enjoyed both of them. I also finished Bodyguard, which was great. My favorite crime drama overall has to be Line of Duty (not on Netflix, unfortunately), such a good show.

What other British crime dramas would you recommend that are available on Netflix?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
